A variety of fitness exercises, calorie calculator, pedometers and so on. Of course, this niche, to put it mildly, is a bit cluttered.

More recently Fourdesire studio developed the game called Walkr, which, in my opinion, very skillfully combines a kind of the above-mentioned applications and pleasant enough gameplay.
